FAQs

How do I clean my Belstaff Racemaster Jacket?

The Belstaff Racemaster Jacket requires specialist dry cleaning only to maintain its waxed cotton finish. Do not machine wash, hand wash, tumble dry, iron, or bleach the jacket.

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

The jacket is constructed from 6oz waxed cotton, which makes it highly wind and water-repellent, offering significant protection against rain and wind. However, it is not considered fully waterproof like a hardshell jacket designed for extreme conditions.

Can I re-wax the jacket myself?

While it is possible for experienced individuals to re-wax cotton jackets, it is generally recommended to have the jacket re-proofed by a specialist. This ensures the correct type of wax is used and applied properly, maintaining the jacket's appearance and protective qualities.

What kind of weather is this jacket suitable for?

This jacket is ideal for unpredictable weather conditions, providing excellent protection against wind and rain. It is well-suited for cooler seasons like autumn and spring, and can also be worn in milder winter climates.

How should I store the jacket?

Store your jacket in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid storing it in plastic garment bags for extended periods, as this can trap moisture. Keep it away from direct sunlight and heat sources like radiators or open fires.

Does the jacket fit true to size?

Yes, the Belstaff Racemaster Jacket is designed to fit true to size. It is cut with a regular fit, so you should take your normal size for the intended fit.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff or restrictive.

New waxed cotton jackets can be quite stiff initially. The best solution is to wear the jacket regularly. Over time, the material will soften and mold to your body, becoming more comfortable and supple.

Water repellency seems to be diminishing.

The waxed finish, which provides water resistance, can wear down over extended use or after specialist cleaning. To restore full water repellency, the jacket may need to be re-waxed. It is recommended to seek a specialist service experienced in re-proofing waxed cotton garments to ensure proper application and protection.

Jacket has an unusual or strong odor.

Waxed cotton can naturally have a distinct aroma, especially when new. Ensure the jacket is aired out in a well-ventilated space for several days or weeks. Avoid storing it in enclosed or damp areas, which can exacerbate odors. If the odor persists or seems unusual, consult a specialist cleaner.

The Belstaff Racemaster Jacket is designed to fit true to size. When selecting your size, it is recommended to take your normal size. The jacket is cut with a regular fit, providing comfortable room for movement and potential layering. Made from 100% cotton for the body and lining, with 100% viscose for the sleeve lining, the jacket's distinctive waxed finish requires specific care. To maintain the integrity and protective qualities of the waxed cotton, the jacket requires specialist dry cleaning only. Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, or bleach the jacket, as these methods can damage the wax coating and fabric. It is crucial to keep the jacket away from fire and direct heat sources to prevent damage to the waxed material. For storage, hang the jacket in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, avoiding plastic garment bags which can trap moisture and cause mildew or wax degradation. Regular airing of the jacket can help preserve its condition.
